GATHERING, USE AND DISCLOSURE OF NON-PERSONALLY-IDENTIFYING INFORMATION
Definitions
“Personally-Identifying Information” or “Personal Information” is information, such as a name or email address, that, without more, can be directly associated with a specific person, or from which a specific person is directly or indirectly identifiable.
“Non-Personally-Identifying Information” or “Other Information” by contrast, is information that, without the aid of additional information, cannot be directly associated with a specific person.
Personal Information together with Other Information is hereinafter referred to as “User Information”.
“Process”, “Processing” or “Processed” means anything that is done with any Personal Information, whether or not by automated means, such as collection, recording, organization, structuring, storage, adaptation or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, dissemination or otherwise making available, alignment or combination, restriction, erasure or destruction.
Users of the Services Generally
Like most website operators, Company gathers from users of the Websites Non-Personally-Identifying Information. That information includes the user’s Internet Protocol (IP) address, operating system, browser type and the locations of the websites the user views right before arriving at, while navigating and immediately after leaving the Websites. Company also gathers Non-Personally-Identifying Information from users of their software applications such as user’s Internet Protocol (IP) address and operating system. Although such information is not Personally-Identifying Information, it may be possible for Company to determine from an IP address a user’s Internet service provider and the geographic location of the visitor’s point of connectivity as well as other statistical usage data. Company analyzes Non-Personally-Identifying Information gathered from users of the Services to help Company better understand how the Services are being used. By identifying patterns and trends in usage, Company is able to better design the Services to improve users’ experiences, both in terms of content and ease of use. From time to time, Company may also release the Non-Personally-Identifying Information gathered from Services users in the aggregate, such as by publishing a report on trends in the usage of the Services.
Web Cookies
A “Web Cookie” is a string of information which assigns you a unique identification that a website stores on a user’s computer, and that the user’s browser provides to the website each time the user submits a query to the website. We use cookies on the Websites to keep track of services you have used, to record registration information regarding your login name and password, to record your user preferences, to keep you logged into the Websites and to facilitate purchase procedures. Company also uses Web Cookies to track the pages that users visit during each Websites session, both to help Company improve users’ experiences and to help Company understand how the Websites are being used. As with other Non-Personally-Identifying Information gathered from users of the Websites, Company analyzes and discloses information gathered using Web Cookies, so as to help Company, its partners and others better understand how the Websites are being used. COMPANY USERS WHO DO NOT WISH TO HAVE WEB COOKIES PLACED ON THEIR COMPUTERS SHOULD SET THEIR BROWSERS TO REFUSE WEB COOKIES BEFORE ACCESSING THE WEBSITES, WITH THE UNDERSTANDING THAT CERTAIN FEATURES OF THE WEBSITE MAY NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY WITHOUT THE AID OF WEB COOKIES. WEBSITES USERS WHO REFUSE WEB COOKIES ASSUME ALL RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANY RESULTING LOSS OF FUNCTIONALITY.
To find out more about cookies, including how to see what cookies have been set and how to manage and delete them, visit wikipedia.org, www.allaboutcookies.org, or www.aboutcookies.org.
Google AdWords
We may use Google AdWords Remarketing to advertise the Company across the Internet. AdWords remarketing will display relevant ads tailored to you based on what parts of the Websites you have viewed by placing a cookie on your machine. The cookie is used to say, “This person visited this page, so show them ads relating to that page.” Google AdWords Remarketing allows us to tailor our marketing to better suit your needs and only display ads that are relevant to you. If you do not wish to participate in our Google AdWords Remarketing, you can opt out by visiting Google’s Ads Preferences Manager (http://www.google.com/settings/ads). You can also opt out of any third-party vendor’s use of cookies by visiting www.networkadvertising.org/choices/.
Microsoft Bing Ads
We use the conversion and tracking tool Bing Ads from Microsoft Corporation as part of our Websites. Microsoft stores a cookie on the user’s computer to enable an analysis of the use of our online services. The prerequisite for this is that the user has accessed our Websites through an ad from Microsoft Bing Ads. This enables Microsoft and us to know that someone has clicked on an ad, has been redirected to our online Services and has reached a predetermined target page. We only see the total number of users who clicked on a Bing ad and were then forwarded to the target page (conversions).
Users can find further information on data protection and the cookies used at Microsoft Bing ads in Microsoft’s data protection declaration: https://privacy.microsoft.com/de-de/privacystatement.
If you do not wish to participate in the Bing Ads tracking process, you can communicate your objection to Microsoft here: http://choice.microsoft.com/de-DE/opt-out.
Analytics
We may use third-party vendors, including Google, who use first-party cookies (such as the Google Analytics cookie) and third-party cookies (such as the DoubleClick cookie) together to inform, optimize and serve ads based on your past activity on the Websites, including Google Analytics for Display Advertising. The information collected may be used to, among other things, analyze and track data, determine the popularity of certain content and better understand online activity. If you do not want any information to be collected and used by Google Analytics, you can install an opt-out in your web browser (https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout/) and/or opt out from Google Analytics for Display Advertising or the Google Display Network by using Google’s Ads Settings (www.google.com/settings/ads).
Aggregated and Non-Personally-Identifying Information
We may share aggregated and Non-Personally Identifying Information we collect under any of the above circumstances. We may also share it with third parties and our affiliate companies to develop and deliver targeted advertising on the Websites and on websites of third parties. We may combine Non-Personally Identifying Information we collect with additional Non-Personally Identifying Information collected from other sources. We also may share aggregated information with third parties, including advisors, advertisers and investors, for the purpose of conducting general business analysis. For example, we may tell our advertisers the number of visitors to the Websites and the most popular features or Services accessed. This information does not contain any Personally-Identifying Information and may be used to develop website content and services that we hope you and other users will find of interest and to target content and advertising.
Mobile Device Additional Terms
If you use a mobile device to access the Websites or download any of our applications, we may collect device information (such as your mobile device ID, model and manufacturer), operating system, version information and IP address.
SOCIAL MEDIA
We may use hyperlinks on the Websites which will redirect you to a social network if you click on the respective link. However, when you click on a social plug-in, such as Facebook’s “Like” button, Twitter’s “tweet” button or the Google+, that particular social network’s plugin will be activated and your browser will directly connect to that provider’s servers. So, for example – when you click on the Facebook’s “Like” button on the Websites, Facebook will receive your IP address, the browser version and screen resolution, and the operating system of the device you have used to access the Websites. Settings regarding privacy protection can be found on the websites of these social networks and are not within our control.
